I'm really disgusted by those who imply that the
cartoonists somehow 'brought it on themselves'. That attitude is
revolting and plays into the hands of the attackers. Anyone who responds
to satire, however extreme, with murder is an asshole.

Secondly,
the response of most Europeans seems to be that ultimately the attacks
are nothing to worry about from the bigger strategic point of view, but I
think it's worth pointing out that it's always fanatical elites who
make and determine the course of History: Christians in the first three
centuries, Nazis, Bolsheviks, etc. 98% of people are docile and do
nothing; it's the 2% that count. These guys mean business and have to be
taken seriously.
